I doubt Eclipse will ever have built-in svn support because there are several third party plugins available. Since adding a plugin update site is so trivial in Eclipse I wouldn't think this would be a big deal. The plugin I use with Struts svn is http://subclipse.tigris.org/. It works

I'm working with subversion (1.1.1)/subclipse/tortoiseSVN for a while now and I'm not completely convinced. The subclipse plugin for eclipse is by far not as mature as the cvs support (no links supported etc.) I was a little bit disappointed when I tried to use subclipse behind a proxy. I

Well, for Maven-based webistes (all at commons) that seems to be quite an issue. Is there any other place than the scm plugin where svn integration in maven makes sense ? The scm plugin is only used for checkout, tagging, releases, etc. The changelog and activity reports work just fine in SVN.
